Fatty Chicken Rice

My family and I took a drive to Sri Kembangan to have chicken rice at this place called Fatty Chicken Rice. Well, the name says it all... The owner is a big fat guy and the chicken were all big and fat too. The difficult part about having your meal there will be getting a carpark for yourself. We normaly spend alot of time waiting and hunting for a carpark lot but we were rather lucky today as there was one available parking spot right in front of the restaurant for us as we arrived. Don't worry about the heat there as they have an airconditioned dining area too.

We ordered 1/2 roasted chicken and 1/2 steamed chicken. And also including 3 double boiled soups and 1 plate of bean sprouts "Tau Geh". After taking our orders, they returned to us within a few minutes admitting that they are short of a chicken thigh for the steamed chicken. So we decided to changed our order to a whole full roasted chicken instead. I like the honesty in them as they didn't try to cheat us. Other places would have just shut the hell up and serve us as we ordered with short of a chicken thigh hoping that we never noticed.

The 3 soups arrived first... They consists of a spinach soup, ginseng black chicken soup and a "Yuk Chuk" chicken soup. The soups were wonderful... We drank every single last drop from it except the meat. Due to being boiled overnight, all the nutrients from the meat has gone into the soup hence makes the meat tasteless and dry. But hey! That's double boiled soup for you :)




Then there came the chicken and the bean sprouts. Their chicken are special as they only use free range chicken also known as "Choi Yin Kai" in Cantonese. Funny thing, they are extremely huge for a free range chicken. Although the chicken is roasted, they managed to keep its juicyness of the meat. These all depends on the chef's "Kung Fu" skills of cooking. Unlike other chicken rice stalls who uses normal cucumber as a condiment for the chicken, this place uses pickled cucumbers instead. Crunchy and soury, just makes it more appetizing. The bean sprouts weren't so salty as they used marginal amount of soya sauce and sprinkled with lots of fried shallots. Mmmm... A perfect combination.

I particularly love their rice... It's very fragrant and not so oily as they use shallot oil to cook the rice. Most other chicken rice stalls uses margarine to cook the rice... That's why the rice turns out in bright yellow colour and this is very unhealthy. They use margarine because it's less troublesome and costs much cheaper than shallot oil. In case you do not know, margarine is made of hydrogenated palm oil which is very very high in saturated fat. Cheaper margarines are made of all sorts of chemicals and the most common ones sold in Malaysia are made from petroleum. V-Power for your tummy! Vroom! Vroom! :)

Amazingly after a big meal, it only cost us RM58.40 for everything including our drinks. Talk about eating cheap, you should try this place out if you don't mind the distance.

Meals at 41,000 feet

Sorry for the late updates... Was kind of shagged up after landing in KLIA. Hit the sack and knocked off when I got back home. Was quite busy the next day too and that's why I'm updating my blog today.


I was flying overhead the Straits of Japan heading south at 41,000 feet above mean sea level when suddenly I received a chime from the cabin crew telling me it's lunch time! Yum! Yum! Was rather hungry that day as my breakfast was only a Nissin Cup Noodle. My starters were soft rolls with garlic bread. Apetisers were Japanese Buckweed Noodles also known as "Zaru Soba", main course was grilled sea bass with cream and vegetables, deserts were fresh fruits. The soft roll was never my favourite but I always enjoyed the garlic bread although it's a little bit tough.


The "Zaru Soba" is only available for Japanese routes. We don't normally get this served on board unless we're flying to Japan. It's really good especially when you mix the "wasabi" in the sauce. It gives an extra "kick" into the flavour. So, don't have your "soba" without one.

The grilled fish was quite fresh and blends especially well with the cream sauce. Add a couple dashes of black pepper, viola! You've got yourself a delicious main course... Sadly, the sweet peas were rather old. The rest of the vegies were just fine.

Crab Crab & Crab In Narita!!!

I'm currently in Narita, Japan... Came back after a long day shopping in the Aeon Shopping Center buying Japanese products which we couldn't find back home in Boleh Land. Got back to the Holiday Inn Tobu Narita hotel just in time for the crab buffet at 6pm LT. It costs JPY4000.00 (equivelant to RM140.00) per person. They serve BBQ King Crab and cold Queen Crab. If you don't know what kind of crab these are, they are the ones where you watch those crazy guys fishing them in the show Deadliest Catch from Discovery Channel.

The King Crabs are bigger and saltier with a jagged shell whereelse the Queen Crab has a smoother and rounder shell with a sweeter taste... They call the Queen Crabs here as "Kumogani" or also widely known back home as the Spider Crab. I ate about 2kgs of King Crab and about 1/2kgs of Queen Crab. With a bloated belly and two thumbs up, I raised my white flag surrendering myself to retirement :)

Got back to my room, took a shower and it's time to relax with an ice cold beer... Drank the Suntory All Malt Beer for the first time. Gave it a try and apparently it tastes really good. The flavour is rich and crispy. It costs me JPY500 (equivelant to RM18.00) for a pint in the hotel. Although everything in Japan is expensive, booze here is still cheaper than back home in Boleh Land. (5.0% alc)

Adelaide... OZ

Adelaide, Australia.

Besides strip clubs, XXX shops and pokies, there's nothing much to do in Adelaide. It's a superbly laid back town. You can't find a descent bar around without slot machines but I manage to find a small little bar called The Little Bar at Hindley's. Had a pint of Victoria Bitter and decided to head back to the hotel. They weren't so friendly with Asians especially "chinks" like me. If I was Indian, I think they would have killed me :)

I woke up late at 6.30pm LT today... Walked out the hotel at 7.15pm and every shop and restaurants were closed. The only restaurant still open is called Mekong & Thai which is just directly opposite my hotel... Of course, their food sucks and that's why I ain't going back in there again. I tried their food once 3 months back and it was terrible. Imagine, a "guai lo" was frying my Nasi Goreng Kampung :) Since every restaurants were closed, I had no choice but to have take aways. Tried out this outlet called Wok In A Box. They serve Chinese "dung chows" in a box like what you see in the American movies. Ordered the "Hot & Spicy" and it costs me AU$10.95. It's stir fried noodles with beef, chicken, onions, capsicums, chili and chili sauce. Damn it was terrible! Maybe it is more for "guai lo's" tastes but not for us.

After my crappy meal in my room while watching Ran & Stimpy, decided to get some booze. Ordered room service for 2 Victoria Bitter, 2 Crown Lager, 2 Coopers original pale ale and 2 Coopers clear.

Victoria Bitter:

VB has always been my favourite when I'm in OZ... It's easy to obtain practically everywhere in OZ and it doesn't give you a disappointment. It gives a good flavour of its Lager but it ain't so bitter. I would prefer it to be a little bit more bitter to give the extra "umph!". (4.6% alc)

Crown Lager:

They call this the premium beer. It costs more than other beer. I don't undertand why they call it a Lager... Tastes more like Pilsner beer to me... It's quite flat in flavour but I have to say, it's really really really smooth for beer. (4.9% alc)

Coopers Pale Ale:

They call it ale, I call it beer. We "chinapek" can't really tell the differences between beer and ale unless we look into its ingredients. Honestly, it tastes rather OK to me. Flavour is much richer than the rest but the "kick" really isn't there. (4.5% alc)

Coopers Clear:

Low Carb Beer... Really regreted trying this bull crap! Tastes really really dry... If you think Asahi Dry Beer is dry, wait till you try this crap. It's like a desert running through your throat and into your belly. Tastes rather flat like Duty Free Tiger beer back home. This is definitly a No No for recommendations... Unless you're size of a freaking Hippo and decided to keep a low fat diet, by all means, GO AHEAD! (4.5% alc)

I have to say, there are more beers to try in Australia... Different states makes different beer. The best beer I had is called Little Creatures which I tried in Perth. It's really good. I'll keep you guys further updated with the Little Creatures end of this month when I'm there. Cheers!

My New Blog!

Greetings everyone!!!

This is the first time I'm creating a blog. As a commercial pilot and I've been to almost everywhere around the globe, I've decided to create a blog regarding good food and good booze from around the world. I love food and I love getting drunk. I live to eat NOT eat to live. I never cared about unhealthy food either because I believe in living life to its fullest! Nothing else could statisfy the average Joe like me besides good food and good booze. I hope this blog of mine could give you good tips and information for food whenever or whereever you are. CHEERS TO ALL!!! :)
